AGREED, in general, such a sweeping statement sounds so over the top it is easy to dismiss it as hyperbole. Crazy-talk. Alas, have no fear, this blogger remains in good company. A stalwart American patriot, ex Rep. Colonel Allen West, has publicly stated the same thesis.

On Wednesday, former GOP Rep. Allen West minced no words,callingBarack Obama an “Islamist” whose administration is “working counter to the security of the United States of America.” And, he added, “all” of the evidence points to that conclusion.

According to West, that is the only way one can rationalize Obama’s actions regarding foreign policy, especially on matters pertaining to the Middle East. He cited six specific examples:

The unilateral release of five senior Taliban back to the enemy while the enemy is still fighting us.

Providing weapons of support to the Muslim Brotherhood-led Egyptian government — F-16s and M1A1 Abrams tanks — but not to the Egyptian government after the Islamist group has been removed.

Negotiations with Qatar and Turkey, two Islamist-supporting countries.

Negotiations with Hamas, a terrorist group.

Returning sanction money, to the tune of billions of dollars, back to the theocratic regime led by Iran’s ayatollahs and allowing them to march on towards nuclear capability.

Obama’s evident support of Islamists in Libya.

MANY others are finally jumping on board. Better late than never. Welcome to “Adina’s world”. Heartburn.

YET, even when the proofs are so overwhelming and manifest, countless still equivocate, preferring to deny the obvious by burying the evidence in the sand. On the other side of the spectrum, the verily malignant agree with said anti-western outcome! Damn them…

FOR the absolute record, being that this site’s inception coincided with the campaign for 2012, several high decibel shout outs came from this quarter.

CONSIDER his close relationship with (the late, non-lamented) Edward Said, an Islamist and close collaborator with the godfather of suicide terror, “Chairman” Arafat!Yes, having connections with some who “watched” Said’s reign of terror from his perch at Columbia U., it should be understood: what is written about him, re his anti-American, anti-Israel, anti-western activities, is merely the tip. Let us leave said “birdies” out of the mix. Nevertheless, the following speaks volumes but just scratches the surface:

A new report reveals that US President Barack Obama’s administration stopped a shipment of missiles to Israel late last month and tightened weapons shipment procedures to Israel, as tensions between the two nations grow amid Operation Protective Edge.

The report in the Wall Street Journal, released Wednesday night, cites US officials in Obama’s administration, who say they discovered Israel had requested a large number of Hellfire missiles directly through military-to-military channels. An initial batch of the missiles was about to be shipped, according to sources in Israel and the US Congress.

At that point, the Pentagon stepped in and put the transfer on hold. Further, top White House officials instructed various US military agencies to consult with the US State Department before approving any additional requests from Israel.

A senior Obama administration official was quoted in the report as saying the transfer shouldn’t have been a routine “check-the-box approval,” given Israel’s defensive operation in Gaza against Hamas, which is recognized as a terrorist organization by the US.

The decision to clamp down on future transfers was the equivalent of “the United States saying ‘the buck stops here. Wait a second…It’s not OK anymore,'” said the official.

A Israeli defense official confirmed the reports to Walla! on Thursday, saying “the US delayed a shipment of Hellfire missiles to the Israeli airforce.” He added “apparently it was (done) on the background of national tension” with Israel.

Obama has been at odds with Israel over the defensive operation in Gaza, making various attempts to press Israel into accepting a truce with the adamant terrorist organization of Hamas. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu reportedly responded to the pressure by telling the administration “not to ever second guess me again,” after Hamas committed one of its many ceasefire violations.

Currently a new five-day ceasefire has come into effect as of Wednesday at midnight, with Obama calling Netanyahu shortly thereafter to push for a“sustainable” ceasefire.

According to US officials cited in the Wall Street Journal report, the Wednesday night phone call between Obama and Netanyahu was “particularly combative.”

“Discovering” military-to-military arms transfers

The report noted that on July 20, ahead of the Hellfire missile cancellation, the IDF asked the US military for various munitions such as 120-mm mortar shells and 40-mm illuminating rounds, without the knowledge of Obama’s administration.

Three days later the request was approved by the military, without Obama or US Secretary of State John Kerry being approached for approval, given that their approval was not required for such a transfer.

A US defense official added that the standard review process in such requests was properly followed.

The transfer without Obama’s unnecessary approval was followed by asimilar incident ahead of the Hellfire cancellation, which occurred the same day as the July 30 IDF strike on terrorists adjacent to a UN school, which the US slammed as “disgraceful.”

On the same day as the UN school strike, US reports said the 120-mm and 40-mm rounds had been released by the US army to the IDF, with one Obama administration official saying “we were blindsided.”

A US defense official responded, saying “there was no intent to blindside anyone. The process for this transfer was followed precisely along the lines that it should have.”

Demonstrating the tense ties between Obama’s administration and Israel, a senior official of the administration told the Wall Street Journal “we have many, many friends around the world. The United States is their (Israel’s) strongest friend.”

“The notion that they are playing the United States, or that they’re manipulating us publicly, completely miscalculates their place in the world,” added the official.

The US decision to tighten down on arms transfers to Israel comes as the UK is threatening similar actions. On Tuesday, the British government threatened to suspend 12 arms export licenses to Israel if fighting resumed in Gaza.

The Obama administration has tightened its control of arms transfers to Israel, requiring White House and State Department approval for even routine munitions requests by Israel, according to the piece.

“Instead of being handled as a military-to-military matter, each case is now subject to review – slowing the approval process and signaling to Israel that military assistance once taken for granted is now under closer scrutiny,” the story said.

The report came out on the same day that the Istanbul-basedHurriyet Daily News reported that the US cleared a potential $320 million advanced medium-range airto- air missiles sale to Turkey “amid increasing security risks in the region.”

STILL, the question begs: why wait until supplies run low, if, in fact, the goal is to put an end to the attacks? Common sense dictates that enough missiles be reserved for the coup de grace, not for the “tit for tat” responses, or the bizarre, counter-intuitive, mantra “quiet will be met with quiet”. Truly, when operating against a genocidal foe, what kind of rational leadership would ever adopt such an Orwellian “strategy”? Indeed, as a result, Israel’s missile supplies are wasted on attacking empty buildings via the smoke and mirrors show, all the unintended, yet unavoidable, collateral damage beside the point.

THE fact that Washington effectively owns (you read that right) Jerusalem’s decision makers (for decades) makes the Islamist-in-Chief’s task that much easier. Hmm…the ever “elusive” IDF victory, at least since 1973, understood for what it is. More succinctly, for what it isn’t!

Indeed it seems like it may be too late. If we change the lens we’re looking through, and look through the one you’re looking through, Adina, all the seeming incompentcey, etc. is just a thin veneer of the deliberate goal of causing division, destruction, and mistrust of all western democracies in order to acheive chaos and anarchy. I am filled with dread at the thought of just how much the divider in chief is going to push Israel into doing the last option it has left to use, and that we’re headed in that direction.
